Your nature is bliss and your glory is without stain. Because you identify yourself with the ego, you are tied up to birth and death. Your bondage has no other cause. The body exists in time and space, transient and limited, while the dweller is timeless and spaceless, eternal and all pervading. The self is beyond time, space and objects. It is infinite and the nature of absolute happiness. The beginning is Atman, the middle is Atman, and the end is Atman. What appears other than Atman is mere illusion.

It burns all the non Self, all the gross worldly objects, and in the end is itself burnt. In this way, it is like fire. Both the camphor and the flame vanish. Similarly, the Self after having consumed everything that is non self, perishes and nothing objective remains... The only one who gets the enjoyment of Bliss is the one who knows his true nature. There is no bondage for him who is free from all actions.

They are one and inseparable. They are two sides of one entity. Creative forces without consciousness cannot be directed and used, and consciousness without creative forces has no creativity but merely “IS,” without knowledge, ability (doing) or remembrance. In the beginning the operative powers of these three creative forces were not released but were in a balanced state. So the universe was in a state of “Be”ness (symmetric). Through the desire of God, their operative powers were released. Because of the operative power of the satva guna (sentient force) and presence of the active tama guna (crudifying force), the feeling of “I know” was awakened and spread in the universe. The first part of the ego was evolved... Because of the operative power of the raja guna (mutative force) and presence of the active tama guna, the feeling of “I do” was created and spread in the universe. The second part of the ego came into existence...Through the influence of the operative power of the tama guna (crudifying force), the first state of ethereal factor (fine ether) evolved and the memory as “I have done” was felt. So the ego became complete. This process continued until the unit consciousnesses (individual egos) were evolved. A manifestation of the Divine (Spark of Light) through gross form (body), is individualized ego (Illusion), separated from God. With this, each unit consciousness is felt separately as “I” which “knows,” “does,” and “has done.” So because of the influence of the tama guna as “I,” the universal consciousness was divided into infinite unit consciousnesses as separate “I”s.As the tama guna becomes more dominant, the feeling of separation becomes greater and this results in being ego centric, which is the cause of all sufferings, miseries, confusions, and chaos. Before the release of the operative powers of the three gunas, there was no vibration in the universe. By the release of their operative powers and because of the influence of the raja guna, vibration was created. The manifested universe indeed is vibration in different stages. Vibration is sound. This sound vibration or the creative power in the universe in the operative state is “The Word”. It is the part and parcel of God, which was with God, and the Word was God, and All things are m????de...Raja guna is the energy (life-force) in the universe. When this energy (prana) is directed to higher things or God, it becomes the Light of the consciousness. It resides in all things in the universe, “In him was life, and the life was the light of men.” Because of the influence of the tama guna (darkness), although it is present even in darkness and human consciousness, it cannot be comprehended. The ego prevents this Light and life to be seen by man, and the light shines in darkness, and the darkness comprehended it not.Consciousness, when unmanifested, is in the state of “Be”ness. It is Formless, Nameless, Invisible, and Eternal, neither male nor female. It is Pure Consciousness (Divine Will) as an observer of the universe. It is Pure, passive and neutral. Pure Consciousness is beyond the three gunas or any other grosser manifestation. That is why it can by no means be explained in any level of the manifested world, including the ethereal. Neither can it be understood in the mental state. Anything which can be explained or is explained is not Pure Consciousness. Pure Consciousness can only be known with direct experience. However, consciousness is interwoven into everything which Is or Is Not. Pure Consciousness is the state of equilibrium of the three gunas (Mind)...

If you use your mind to study reality, you won't understand either your mind or reality. If you study reality without using your mind, you'll understand both. When the seeker transcends the mind, only pure Self remains. Hence, the entire world is pervaded with the self alone. What you are looking for is what is looking.

View MoreUnreal are the dream objects during sleep, because the one who dreams never actually goes to place he dreams of, whatever situation he dreams about is something he leaves upon waking up. The unborn alone exists. The birth of what exists only occurs through the power of projection. What is Real, it is not truly born.
We are here to awaken from the illusion of our separation.
